Simpatizo con el movimiento vegano y creo que tienen razón, pero soy un hipócrita y como carne porque la vida es corta y escasos los placeres de este mundo.
Aca el amigo Jony dice verdades. Las corporaciones modernas funcionan como cortes de nobles feudales que necesitan rodearse de subordinados y aduladores para incrementar su poder en el escalafon.
I've heard this a lot, but I don't believe it's the real reason (even if it's what they tell themselves) because the numbers don't make sense. There are like 4 million programmers in the USA; if your company maybe hires 10k of them or maybe not, that is a negligible drop of the available supply; the amount of competitive advantage gained is small but it is super expensive. If you don't hire the 10k, you get almost the same benefit because everyone *else* is hiring the extra people, but you save a huge amount of money.
I think the real reason is just that managers always want more people below them, because that is what career advancement means to them, and there are other incentives, like you want to bulk up if you are going to get bought or do an IPO, so that the optics justify a higher price.
